Almighty Doer of Stuff wrote:"His and her"? In addition to being a Pastafarian, I don't suppose you're also a follower of the Nine-Headed Cave Cow?

I included her for two reasons firstly, despite years of research I am still unable to determine the sex of pasta (any help in resolving this matter would be gratefully received) and secondly (and of far greater importance) I do not wish to be confronted by angry cutlass weilding female Pastafarians.

I'm not familiar with the Nine-Headed Cave Cow (is there any connection with the Cult of the Dead Cow?), however if you can provide me with any information I'm sure I can include it into my religious schedule. Tuesday is probably the best day for me for any additional worship (the weekend being entirely taken up by the Abrahamic faiths).

Give a man a packet of spaghetti and he can give his family food for a day. But give that man a spaghetti plant and he can give his whole village something to talk about.

The Nine-Headed Cave Cow is almost exclusively worshiped on the message board at the end of my signature and various satellite fora. I'm not a follower. I don't believe it's as fleshed out of a religion as CoFSM or IPU, however. Cave cows inhabit the underground kingdom of Exile/Avernum, and are former surface cows sent down to and bred in the caves, presumably out of pity for the exiles.

The reason I asked is that the NHCC is referred to as Him and Her (as opposed to Him OR Her), and that was the only other place I've ever read that phrase describing one being.

The Nine-Headed Cave Cow is a deity and is thus not bound by mortal science.

Anyway, you'd have to ask *Spidweb username removed* for more details if you're interested. It's his religion, but honestly I don't believe he wants a deluge of emails and PMs about the NHCC, since it's really a Spiderweb Software thing, and he thinks I'm annoying enough already, so I probably shouldn't have even brought it up.

EDIT: I don't want to piss him off, so I removed his name. He's miserable enough as it is and doesn't need hordes of ornery Pastafarians harassing him.
